LCD Display Driver

Hello,

I bought a SainSmart display which fits on the PCA10028 development board. This display is a 16x2 character display with a HD44780 display contoller (I guess). Does anybody know if there is a driver available that runs on the nRF51422? If not, maybe I can adapt a driver for a similar display. Thanks, Mathias

  • Hi phob, sorry for delayed response. I forgot my Nordic Dev Zone login info and clicked on "forgot my password", but Nordic Dev Zone hasn't been helpful at all to recover my account, so I just created another account to answer your question.

    I highly recommend you use the IO port expander to free up your pins on your board, plus it is really easy to hook up one. The files I have attached here only work with TWI line, but you may be able to change it so it would suite your need.

    Cheers, and good luck.
